oh i know what i meant to say the other day. It was our wedding anniversary and hubby made me a card :heartsmil Ok it was a die-cut decoupage and all he had to dowas stuck it all together but i think it was lovely and thoughtful. He also said that he won't complain that it takes me so long to make one card as it took him ages.

Cardpaperscissors Alice cake is a spicy moist fruit cake, you can find the recipe here. I always make double quantity and it makes 4x 1lb loaf tins which gives 8 generous slices per cake. Its very yummy and freezes really well, its also nice warm with custard!!
